Boot from an Acronis Clone?

Thread needs solution

I hope this is the right forum for this question.

I'd like to back up my system disk using a method that will allow me to boot from the backup should the main drive fail. I'm technical enough that if this requires me to physically remove the failed main drive and install the backup into the system (because say, my PC doesn't have a boot-from-usb option) then that's OK.

The question is which Acronis product allows me to do this, or do they all allow me to do this?

Thanks in advance

Mike

What I do is backup to an internal 2TB drive. I did a minimal Windows install and installed ATI on the drive. I have a RAID that needs drivers and this was the easiest and fastest way to recover - Boot to the backup drive and your ready to go.
